Chiefs v Hurricanes

Jeez that’s a lot of talent unavailable for the Canes and Chiefs are pretty much full strength. Could be a long day at the office.

@Canes4life Yeah could very well be not looking forward to it to be fair especially with our ability to fall asleep during games.

Big game for Devery. Still a rookie and only his 2nd start. From MP to Chiefs is a big step up.
@Stargazer huge game, especially against the best hooker in the comp. Good for Devery's growth as it's highly likely he'll be promoted to no2 rake next year.
The starting XV is pretty sound, it's more the bench I'm worried about. Guys like Faiva, Tosi and Hohepa have a real NPC look about them.

A lot of that lot is self inflicted though, right?

Hoped to see Laghlan Mcwhannell this match.
FYI, he is playing club rugby tomorrow.
Vaa'i still needs his week off, and if Lord is unavailable you would expect McWhannell to be in the 23 for at least one of the remaining RR games.

Sangster and Delany get a decent run off the bench, but we know Holland will take off IWL and Flanders, instead of Iose and Blackwell, as he always subs off his biggest forwards.

Or Gibbes. He must be involved too. But they might surprise us this game. I hope so. Otherwise we could be looking at a big loss

Jesus, I can't unsee those man boobs doing a pre-game haka. Horrific.

@Machpants no. One of the 'cultural' (or whatever the're called) chaps.
